This isn't really our bug since this port is not in the macports-ports repository.

In the instructions you referred to, I don't see an explanation of where to get the Portfile from. It appears you used the copy of the Portfile available here: ​https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/blob/master/packaging/macos/Portfile

That won't work because it appears to be just a template. Note the placeholders like @PROJECT_NAME@ and @PROJECT_VERSION@. Those would need to be replaced with real values. It appears that the sunshine cmake configuration process might do this for you, so try doing that. It probably won't replace the placeholders in the template; it will create a new Portfile somewhere else in which the placeholders have been filled in. That new file is the one you would put in your ~/ports/... directory.

It is weird of them to have a Portfile in their repository. The correct thing to do is to submit the Portfile to the macports-ports repository, which is where it would be maintained from that point on. As noted in a comment in the Portfile text, they did do this in ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/15143 but the request was closed without explanation.

    3 I have been struggling in the last few hours with this and I am sorry if it's a dumb thing easy to solve. I have been following this guide: https://docs.lizardbyte.dev/projects/sunshine/en/latest/about/installation.html to be able to get the software sunshine to work on my m1 MacBook. As stated in the guide I add the local source in the following file: /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf. After I add the source the file looks like this (I edited it with the terminal using this command: sudo nano /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf):

I really do not know hoe to upload files here but this is the directory of the Portfile, maybe it helps: /Users/andrei*******/ports/multimedia/sunshine/Portfile
